Iona College Ranked Highly on Payscale ROI Report

4/27/2017

Iona College has been ranked in the top 16 percent of colleges and universities nationwide for return on investment in PayScale.com’s 2017 College ROI Report. PayScale’s return on investment rankings are based on the cost of attendance to obtain a degree, as well as the earning potential of graduates, as determined by salary information from alumni. The rankings seek to help prospective students and others “better understand the value of college education.”

“There are many things that prospective students and their families must take into account when considering best fit and their undergraduate college choice,” said Lauren Mounty, Ph.D., Iona’s vice president for Enrollment Management. “These new ROI rankings do support what our graduates already know about the College: that an Iona education can help individuals achieve successful career outcomes. At Iona, surveys show 94 percent of our graduates are working or attending graduate school shortly after completing their degrees.”
